NCGA Four Ball QualifierApril 8, 2017 at Moffett Field

The weather for this event at Moffett Field was a mixed bag with
some steady rain, a couple of intense squalls and sunshine during the round. The competition consisted of
two tournaments - one to determine the two four ball teams that will go on in
the NCGA competition and one to determine who won the prize money and the
coveted TOC points.

In the qualifier, the team of John Osness and Howard
Stein finished one shot clear of the field to move to the next round of
competition. Two teams finished tied for the second qualifying spot and
went back out on the course to decide which one would advance.
David Farwell and William Wei returned to the first
tee to take on Ken and Darien Arends. It
took three holes to determine the results with Farwell and Wei coming out on
top.

The net portion of the tournament, with prize money and TOC points at stake,
resulted in a runaway win for the team of James Kaku and
Trevor Heathorn at six-under 66. Three teams finished at
69 requiring a card playoff to determine the order of finish. Ken
and Darien Arends took second with a fine back-nine score of
32. Third place went to John Osness and Howard
Stein with a 33 while John Frykland and Jim
Breedlove finished fourth with a 34 on the back.

Congratulations to all and good luck to the qualifiers in the next round of competition.
